"Maraya, who says she has been into everything from yoga to trio-energetics, has evolved her own theory for good health and good looks by simply being convinced that 'you are your body'. She calls it core energetics - the core being the body and the energetics having to do with breathing, grounding, and vibrating according to one's own particular wavelength in the scheme of one's own universe. It is not as mystical as it sounds, for some of her theories seem down-to-earth enough."
"The core energy program is a potent therapeutic and developmental tool especially because of its appropriateness to the Filipino psyche and personality. I have seen individuals arrive at insights and achieve a deep understanding of their selves and their present concerns in a one-weekend workshop of core-energetics, that would approximate several months of one-hour-once-a-week sessions of the traditional verbal therapies. Understandably, I do not hesitate to include this body-mind approach in a program of therapy or growth for a Filipino clientele."
